Thinking Myself Into a Hole
I had a 24 hour bug yesterday and spent most of the day in bed. You know what they say, "an alcoholic by herself is in poor company."
Within just a few hours to I went from, "isn't this nice that I have the day to rest," to "everybody sucks." You know, everybody. My sponsor, my sponsees, my neighbors and most of all I just suck. Did I reach out to my A.A. sisters? No of course not I was too busy thinking about what was wrong with me and everyone else.
By last night however, I felt well enough to go to my home group. It is amazing what an hour in a meeting can do for my attitude. I went from thinking myself into a hole to feeling gratitude. ¶ 1/25/2008 08:56:00 AM

Glad that you thought your way out of the hole and hope that you are feeling better today. Have a great weekend.
I always have to get to the "I suck" part before I do anything about it though!
I spent 4 whole days sick in bed this month, I really sucked!

Isn't great that just being in the company of other drunks we get better? I love that! Glad you are feeling better.
